Actor James Woods said he was playing poker at the Bellagio when the suspect robbed the cage 30 feet away, he shared on Twitter.

Police said the robber entered through the valet area of the Bellagio.

"@Bellagio staff were fantastic". The unidentified man was able to leave the vehicle before the suspect drove away and is safe.

He escaped in a silver Chevrolet Cruze with Nevada license plates. "Excellent staff, cool under pressure", Woods tweeted. Pelletier said that there was video of the crime and that police were confident the robber would be caught.

MGM Resorts International, which owns the Bellagio, issued a statement saying they are working with the police.

As mentioned, Capt. Pelletier said that he is confident that investigators have enough clues when combining security video, eye witness accounts, the information about the auto, and more, that the suspect will be apprehended.

Police said this masked gunman walked up to a poker cage and demanded money.

The Bellagio grew in popularity after the 2001 film Ocean's Eleven had stars George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Bernie Mac - and more - pull off a mega-million dollar heist at the casino.
